"My elephant in the room is the gas plant. I know that I am limited. We all are limited because it’s a provincial project, dealing with a crown corporation and a US multinational. But that doesn’t mean we have to be quiet about it. That doesn’t mean we have to accept everything that’s coming down the road. We can definitely push back. We can organize the community. We have a wonderful set of groups: PCIC (Protect the Chignecto Isthmus Coalition), Stop the Tantramar Gas Plant, Seniors for Climate. There are numerous other voices that are being heard. And now this project is having baby projects in PEI and Nova Scotia, so the movement’s getting bigger, there’s more Atlantic involvement. So those are my two issues. I wanna do what I can for openness, communication, and transparency, and to make Tantramar a place where everybody feels heard."

If you are focussed on communicating and connecting with others who also do not have a voice on what matters to them in Canada and you live in the region of Tantramar the VERY last thing you do is set up a "private" Facebook group online here: Stop the Tantramar Gas Plant! | Facebook
